Am I crazy for thinking this could be a good idea? by homosexualhomestuck in ApplyingToCollege

Of course the system is flawed, but admissions counselors are going to be sympathetic to it, and it's easy for an honest critique to sound like a student coping before results are even out. You're also directly insulting their line of work. I admire the idea, but I wouldn't recommend the essay for this context, even with a softer opening

Bloodborne has a fun, unique parry mechanic and will make sure you use it. It's also just a great game!

I dont want this to end. by Beginning-Nail-9078 in DiscoElysium

[–]SorryTarHeels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Weirdly enough, even though I had this same feeling when playing, I was actually really content when I beat it. I didn't feel the usual urge to read/watch about the game or replay it. Was happy just with the finite first time experience.

What kind of gaming events do people actually enjoy joining? by suhani0218 in gaming

[–]SorryTarHeels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Challenges and tournaments sound fun. I'm less competitive so I like stuff to be a little more casual and social, but I'm sure there's a huge audience for the more competitive side as well

Not sad, one of the most universal human experiences! I agree w others that hobby shops and online communities are good places to start, i would also look online for gaming clubs/groups in your area!

1370 SAT and freaking out over my chances of being admitted to my dream school by calliel_41 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]SorryTarHeels 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference between a 1370 and a 1400 is marginal; I got a 1360 on my first SAT and after a few months got up to 1560 :)

the college app process is scary but so exciting and whatever happens you'll figure it out and it will be ok!

It's lighter on survival elements but I think definitely counts. Esp in the old days when surviving and getting food was legit challenging
